Diagnosis
The total pension contributions (employee, employer and any AdditionalVoluntary Contributions) paid into the COMPS scheme are lower than therequired COMPS minimum payment for this employee.

System Response
By default, a payroll rejection is triggered for the employee.However, it is possible to customise the system response in featureGCMIN, so that instead of a payroll rejection, you can either:

• Trigger a payroll exception in table EXCEP, or


• Disable the COMPS minimum payment check.

Procedure
Investigate the cause of the problem. You must ensure that the employeeand employer COMPS pension contributions (plus any Additional VoluntaryContributions made) are equal to or exceed the COMPS minimum payment.The value of the COMPS minimum payment is the sum of wage types /307(employee share of minimum payment) and /308 (employer share of minimumpayment). The employee and employer pension contributions (plus anyAdditional Voluntary Contributions made) are based on the amounts inthe wage types assigned to the employee's COMPS scheme in viewV_T5G37_A (pension scheme calculation wage types). Any retroactivepension contribution differences are also included in the comparison inthe IN-period.
In addition, the payroll log contains extensive details of thiscalculation and the checks made. This can be viewed in the log underGB NIC.
If you fail to pay sufficient funds into the COMPS scheme for all youremployees, you may lose the contracted out status of the scheme.
